Exceptional Exteriors is not just their name, but their way of doing business. The initial estimate to job completion was a wonderful experience.
The initial estimate with Jessie was great. He was not pushy or distracted. He is friendly, personable, and very patient with all my questions. He stayed involved throughout the entire process. He made sure the process went smooth and that I was happy. Every time I had a question, he was never was bothered and answered my questions immediately.
The crew that put on the siding are fabulous. They are friendly, polite and hard workers. Their attention to detail and wanting to do the job correctly was very much appreciated. The crew always arrive early and started work immediately. They cleaned up everyday.
I also had new gutters installed. Felix and his crew came. They were wonderful. They were very personable. They went around the house with me, to be sure i was happy with how they were going to install the gutters.
When I would ask a question, he always was so happy to stop what he was doing and answer my question, He truly wanted to be sure I was happy with the process and install.
The entire team at Exceptional Exteriors are committed to ensure the work is done correctly and that I was happy with the works.
I am so pleased with the work Exceptional Exteriors did.
I would highly recommend them!!!
Thank you Exceptional Exteriors (Jessie, Luis, Felix, Caitlin)

Paul Ferrara8 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Paul has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
Exceptional Exteriors just completed installing vinyl siding, two entry doors, window and door wraps, new soffits, some facia repair and trim replacement on our house. It looks fantastic!
The existing exterior cedar shingles were completely removed and replaced with house wrap, insulation and Cape Cod Style vinyl shakes and clapboard. We are very pleased with way the house looks now.
All the work was done in a timely fashion, at the quoted price and the work crew were very hard working and efficient.
It was a pleasure working with Jessie, he is very quick to respond to any questions that arose. Jessie, Daryl and Murphy were all easy to work with. I would not hesitate to contact them for any future work I might have.
